Thank you so much!
The black one I got at Walmart actually. I bought it last year and had it in a bag to return at some point bc my stomach looked awful once I got home and tried it on (bc of COVId you can’t use dressing rooms)but they wouldn’t let me return it due to COVId. So since I ended up w a TT I can keep it now. Top is a little small now w the girls being bigger.

Day 6 post PS:
Days 2,3,4 were the most painful I’ll say. Doing great today. Calling surgeon w my Fluid out take and he will decide when I’m coming in for my next appt based on that. Since I have a almost 4 hour drive he doesn’t want me coming in unnecessarily. Hardly have anything coming out of them so I bet I go in this week.
Abdomen has very little pain now. Breasts feel swollen and sore.
Think I need a better supported bra to hold them closer. Im in a fruit of the loom front button sports bra. My body is smaller than the cup size so the around part doesn’t fit secure but the cup area I’m def filling that part up.

Not sure what I would do without this forum. Everyone has been so helpful w tips and encouragement. [emoji169]Thanks everyone!![emoji169]Wish we all lived closer and could do a yearly get together!
So glad to catch up on ur updates! Prayers for a quick and healthy recovery! [emoji847]

I need to ask surgeon. Is there a length of time you have to sleep on your back.??
I read on another post from someone you need to sleep on your back initially until your implants settle into place? Anyone know anything about that? I plan to ask him tomorrow. Just seeing if anyone else has heard that?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
